Project 3: Create Your Own Special Effects

Time allotted: approximately 45 minutes
We'll be using an app from Doink, called Green Screen.
Doink has a companion app for animation, too, that you might want to investigate on your own.


We 'll use a green fabric screen as a backdrop (you could use green fabric, tablecloth, shower curtain or a painted green wall).

The steps for this project:
  • We'll decide on the Girl Scout song you want to sing
  • Find a background image for the project
  • Break into groups
  • Each group will sing part of the song (Practice! Practice! Practice!)
  • In the Green Screen App:
    • We'll click on the bottom layer, and import the picture you chose
    • We'll click on the top or middle layer, then we'll record the groups performing in front of the green screen
    • Save the movie
  • Watch the movie you created!
